"Deacon Jim" McGuire, the veteran
player and manager of the Cleveland
baseball team of the American League
since Napoleon LaJole resigned a little
over a year ago. is one of the best
known men In baseball.
For many years McGuire was one of
the greatest catchers in the major
leagues, and only retired from active
participation In the game to usurp the
managerial reins when LaJole retired
as a leader. McGuire. like Lajoie,
could not stand the strain of manag
ing a losing club and decided to get
from under. His many friends wish
him the best of luck In his newsphere,
that of a "scout" for new players. In
this latter capacity, he is not a new
hand, for he visited Portland during
the Summer of 1909 as a scout for the
Cleveland team, and at that time he
looked over Jack Graney, Ted East

Western jlayers. - "

sition that we think will interest you.
There is no finer Fit I" IT LAUD in Oregon.
The reason it Isn't long slncethe great estab
lished fruit and agricultural district of the state Is
this: It was covered until a Tecent period by
heavy fir timber. Necessarily this timber had to be
cut gradually for tho marke.
And now the TIMBER! ax is through at last.
Knter the FARMKK and FRl n;KOWfcll.
Experts have passed on our district "-embracing
3000 acreo. - It Is especially adapted to fruit grow
ing, poultry, stock and diversified farming. The
soil ranees from BEAVER HAM, In the bottoms, to
KKD..1HOT, IRON - OXIOIZKU FRl'lT LANDS on
the gently sloping hilly hills that slope to the
west and south, protected from north and east
winds. '
This soil goes to a depth of from 6 to 20 feet.
No rock. Innumerable SPARKLING SPRINGS pro
vide water of the best quality for every tract.
It is a district you can raise, anything in. It is .
especially suited to apples and pears. ,
And having raised a crop you can move it
right Into market as readily and cheaply as if you
were In the suburbs of Portland.
That is because of WATER COMPETITION.
You can ship by RAIL or by WATER from

which is In the heart of our district. The freight
rate Is precisely tho same as from Linaton, on the
edge ot town.
Now the special point Is that we can let you
have a parcel of this land at & reasonable figure.
We are clearing only an acre or so on each
tra"t. The homemaker can complete the Job.
Our special inducement Is that our land-clearing
machinery Is right on the ground and at your
dispoeal at a nominal figure. We will, of course,
do sH the clearing for you if you say the word. .

Here's a mighty fine tribute to the
Woods Electric which is handed to us fre
quently by owners who come in to inspect new models.
They love their old cars s6 well that they are reluctant to change for
a new car unless they ean be assured that the new ones are going to
be as good. That's a compliment that we couldn't buy with any
thin? but quality and service. A million dollars' worth of advertising
couldn't buy it.
'Sl tys'''nese Peple nave actually questioned our
rfZfcC&! t ability or the ability of any concern on
YfzeJja earth to make a new car that will deliver
-f the goods like the old one has. But we
think the answer is, that past experience has. qualified us to improve
on our own work, and the new model is better than the old, good as
the old one was and is.
This ought to be an infallible guide to anybody who contemplates the
purchase of an electric. It beats theory and advertising to death.

unfounded, for his shooting arm seems
as sound as ever.
Also it would seem that late hours
of study have not served to bother his
batting eye. ' Two extra base hits,
one a two-bagger and the other for
three bags, on his first day in a full
game were followed today by a double
